Floral notes, with the light and sweet blend with vanilla is very calming, and also has herbal notes with balsamic undertones. Lavender is a wonderful aromatherapy that is used to relieve all sorts of things and this candle is one that I light early in the morning to start my day off soothing and peaceful before the sun comes up. The beautiful aroma and lovely glow give me a lovely and peaceful start to my mornings as I enjoy my tea. I would buy this again and again.
